Investment management profits
Investment management profits are included in EEV on a look through basis. This means that the profits from investment management generated from life and pensions business are effectively allocated to covered business. However, included within the covered business look through is business actively marketed and sold to third parties through investment management distribution channels. When these profits are added to the third party profits already recognised under EEV, the total third party profit increases to £61m (2006: £45m).
